    It's a Habbo forum. We need more Habbo presence not less.
    However if the rule was changed I'd still think management upwards, at the very least, should have their Habbo name (sorry laura).

    I don't know why people are parroting the idea that you can't search for a user by their Habbo name. You've been able to search by any profile field from the member list since I told matt how to fix it last time this came up.

    When I became HxL staff during the summer, I really hated the idea of having to change my name back to my habbo name as I'm not too fond of my habbo name but obviously can't be bothered to change for some reasons (A) Although, with my role in HxHD, it's a much better idea to have my names matching as if somebody needs help they know exactly how to find me. Also, as I have to PM my staff members quite a lot it's easier for me as I know all of their habbo names and instead of having to try and find what their habboxforum name is as I know quite a lot of people are fond of changing their name frequently

    Staff list and userbits have everything that is needed. There is simply no justification to keep the rule other than that it is "easier". People responding are going to have different feelings answering this poll compares to when they have in the past opted to become staff or vote no simply because they don't care. I can't vote in the poll and have no desire to become staff regardless of username but applying the question objectively there is more reason to remove the rule than to keep it.

    I agree with this.

    Yes, I wouldn't join a community department because honestly I don't want to change my name (I got people on my back like -Nick and !Dudex!211), although I have no desire to join a community department at this point in time.

    I know I resigned from competitions while I was on a trial because @Samanfa; told me I had to change my name to my Habbo name so I was out of there LOL. I don't really understand why comps have to change their names to match their habbo names because they aren't really a client wise department????? All comps are posted on the forum, otherwise why doesn't graphics, forum etc have matching names.

    I swear so many people have used the name change excuse in the past as a reason to not to join a community department. I would be very interested to see if this rule was lifted, would staff numbers in community departments increase.

    I personally don't mind. If we were given the option to have a different name to our habbo name, we would just need to make sure people know who they're dealing with on habbo and then who they are on the forum. I'm sure it wouldn't be that much of a problem to manage as we all know people's habbo names and would know their forum names anyway - due to them having staff perms ofc.

    I'd change my name if I had the chance (considering managers were allowed to do it too).
